Acho, 31, is a former fourth-round pick of the Cardinals back in 2011. He spent four years in Arizona before he signed on with the Bears as an unrestricted free agent back in 2015.

Acho played two seasons on one-year contracts with the Bears before agreeing to a two-year contract in 2018. After being cut by Chicago this past March, Acho signed on with the Bills, but was among their final roster cuts coming out of the preseason.

In 2018, Acho appeared in four games for the Bears and recorded one tackle and no sacks.
